Hey, Hey Take Me Away |
What’s all this spunk on the duckboards? |
Come on Lawrence… come on Lawrence… |
Let’s go out and have a prayer meeting |
Take a chance with our new shotgun |
Hey! |
Come on Lawrence! |
It’s time we escaped again, my son! |
Oi! |
Come on! |
Hey, hey, take me away |
I hate waking up in this place |
There’s nutters in here who whistle and cheer |
When they’re watching a one-legged race |
And a one-legged prefect gets me in bed |
Makes me play with his dick |
One legged horn and he’s shouting the odds |
Driving me bloody well sick |
When I get better, when I get strong |
Will I be alright in the head? |
They’re making me well, if they’re caring for me |
Why do they boot me and punch me? |
Why do they bash me and crunch me? |
Some of the counterpanes are pink and other ones are, blue |
Hey, hey, take me away |
From the ones that go mad every night |
They’re crazy and dangerous one-legged sods |
Who have to sit down when they bite |
One-legged Peter who knows bloody well |
He’s got worse ever since he came in |
This other poor cunt, he was born back-to-front |
And he’s always got stuff on his chin |
When I get better, when I get strong |
Will I be alright in the head? |
Give me a sweet and accost me |
I do hope that God hasn’t lost me |
The lino is brown and the walls have been scraped with blood where someone has |
hanged themselves |
(I hope so!) |
Get it? |
Hey, hey, take me away |
I’m the first to put last in the past |
Take the handcuffs away and please do what I say |
'Cos I hate the untouchable cast |
I want to be normal in body and soul |
And normal in thought, word and deed |
And everyone here will whistle and cheer |
And be happy to see me succeed |
Cheerful Charlie Ashforth |
Now that I’m better, now that I’m strong |
Will I be alright in the head? |
Grey worry lines in all my designs |
And life isn’t rosy, it’s red |
As to why I wrote this song |
I ain’t done nothing wrong, but I’m unhappy |
Question: Do you blame your life on life |
And say it all began before the nappy? |
Hey, hey, take me away, hey, hey, take me away |
Hey, hey, take me away, hey, hey, take me away |
Hey, hey, take me away, hey, hey, take me away |
